The week opens with a decisive risk-off move. Selling pressure is widespread, hitting Technology and European Equities hard, as investors reduce exposure across major sectors.

🇺🇸 US Equities (Pre-market/Early Trading)

$SPX500 — Trading sharply lower, dragged down by losses in Tech and general risk aversion.

$DJ30 — Moving down, tracking the overall negative market sentiment.

$NSDQ100 — Leading the losses, as major tech components face significant selling pressure.

💻 Tech & Growth Snapshot

The entire sector is under pressure, reversing yesterday's gains:

$NVDA (-0,5%) — Facing selling pressure in the semiconductor space.

$GOOGL (-0,57%) — Down sharply, reflecting the market's flight from growth.

$MSFT (-0,27%) — Down, tracking the negative tech trend.

$TSM (-0,59%) — Down, showing weakness in the chip sector.

$RKLB (-0,62%) — Speculative growth continues to underperform in this environment.

🛍️ Retail & Commerce

One of the hardest-hit sectors, indicating pessimism on consumer health:

$AMZN (-0,51%) — Down significantly, hit by the broad tech sell-off.

$BABA (-0,91%) — The biggest loser on the heatmap, selling off sharply amid continued China macro concerns.

$SHOP (-0,51%) — Following the sharp negative sentiment from the e-commerce space.

⚕️ Health & Pharmaceutical

A sector showing minor relative strength, as investors seek defensive names:

$LLY (-0,34%) / $HIMS (+0,7%) / $INSM (-0,62%) — Likely flat or slightly down, holding up better than cyclical sectors as investors pause the rotation out of defensive pharma/biotech.

🇪🇺 Europe & Industrials

All European indices are in the red, led by Finance and Industrials:

STOXX 600 — Trading lower, with selling pressure visible in banks and autos.

GER40 — Trading lower, reflecting widespread European weakness.

Italian Indices(FTSE MIB) — Trading down approx -1.02%.

🏦 Banking & Finance

Under general pressure, reflecting global economic caution:

$UCG (-0,23%) / $CS (-0,25%) / $BPE (-1,04%) — European banks are down, but losses are relatively contained compared to Tech.

$BBVA (-1,96%) — Flat, showing relative stability against the negative trend.

$AXP (-0,23%) / $V (-0,11%) — Likely trading lower, following the broader financial and cyclical trend.

🌏 Asia

Asian markets are expected to close mixed to negative, heavily impacted by the continued sharp sell-off in major Chinese names like $BABA.

💎 Commodities & Precious Metals

$GLD (+0,68%) — Holding steady and flat.The Oro is stable near the $4,000 mark. The fact that Gold is NOT selling off alongside equities suggests this is a stock market correction/profit-taking eventrather than a systemic risk flight.

$BRENT / $WTI — Trading slightly lower, reflecting reduced expectations for global demand.

💰 Crypto

$BTC (+0,31%) / $ETH (+2,09%) / $TRX (-0,07%) — Likely moving lower, following the Nasdaq and the overall risk-off mood.

🔎 Deep Dive: The "Systemic Risk" Pause

Today is a classic "Risk-Off"day driven by profit-taking and macro uncertainty. The market is broadly selling, but the stability of Gold ($GLD)is the key takeaway. In true systemic fear, Gold skyrockets. Its flatness suggests this is a healthy, albeit painful, correction in the equity space, not a collapse. The capital is not fleeing the system, it's just rotating to the sidelines.

Despite this volatility, my view remains unchanged: I have strong, unwavering confidence in Gold as a core protective and strategic asset for the long term.

🔎 Deep Dive: The "Quality Growth" Rally

Today is a "flight to quality growth." The market is not buying everything; it is highly selective. There is clear strength in established Tech ($NVDA, $GOOGL) and a massive rally in European Banks ($BPE.MI, $BBVA.MC). However, there is clear weakness in Chinese Retail ($BABA, $SHOP) and speculative Tech ($RGTI, $RKLB). This divergence signals that investors are willing to take risks, but only on assets with strong fundamentals or clear momentum, while dumping assets exposed to Chinese macro or high speculation.

2. The Losers: $BABA (-0,91%) is collapsing, signaling weakness in Chinese and speculative retail.

3. The Isolated Strong:Italian banks ($BPE (-1,04%) , $CE (-0,58%) ) and $BBVA (-1,96%) continue to outperform.

However, $GOOGL (-0,57%) is surging dramatically, completely disconnecting from the sector on what must be a stellar earnings report. This divergence shows the market is differentiating between AI narratives: $NVDA (-0,5%) is also holding up remarkably well (down only slightly), while other tech ($TSM (-0,59%) , $AVGO (-0,56%) ) is mixed.

Away from tech, Italian banks ($BPE (-1,04%)) continue their isolated rally, but the overall mood is clearly *risk-off*.

🔎 Deep Dive: Market Divergence Post-FOMC

The initial excitement after the Fed's dovish comments has waned, revealing a highly fragmented market. While potential rate stability provides underlying support, company earnings and sector rotation are the main performance drivers today. Tech shows a clear split: leaders like $NVDA (-0,5%) and $TSM (-0,59%) power ahead, while others including $META (+0,07%) , $BABA (-0,91%) , and speculative names like $RGT face significant selling. European banks, particularly Italian ones ($UCG (-0,23%)
$ISP (-0,14%)
$BPE (-1,04%) ) along with $BBVA (-1,96%) , display remarkable strength, contrasting sharply with the caution seen in US payments ($AXP (-0,23%) , $V (-0,11%) ). Gold ($GLD (+0,68%) ) is pausing, suggesting investors are neither fully embracing risk nor rushing to safety, but rather becoming highly selective.

🔎 Deep Dive: FOMC and Trade Deal in Focus

The day is driven by two main themes: anticipation of the FOMC meeting outcome, where the market bets on a dovish stance, and reports of a potential US-China trade deal*suspending tariffs, a key catalyst for the tech sector. Selective weakness in names like $BABA and $AXP suggests investors are taking profits on stocks exposed to uncertain macro data before key events. The rotation is clear: Tech ($NVDA, $GOOGL) is leading, while defensive sectors ($LLY, $IBE.MC) retreat.

🔎 Deep Dive: The Return of Risk-On

The week opens with a decisive "Risk-On" mood. Markets are clearly shrugging off (for now) last week's banking tensions, focusing instead on tech-led growth ($NVDA, $TSM$) and hopes for monetary easing. The strong rally in cryptocurrencies ($BTC, $ETH$) and the weakness of the Dollar ($DXY$) are clear indicators that liquidity is flowing back into riskier assets. European banks ($BBVA.MC$) and the semiconductor sector show unexpected strength, while gold ($GLD$) pauses, confirming the shift in focus from systemic risk to growth opportunities.
